About this map

The village of Genoa serves as the focal point for this Northwest Ohio landscape, situated at the boundary of Ottawa and Sandusky counties. The surrounding geography is defined by a dense network of drainage, where Packer Creek and several branches of Turtle Creek wind through flat farmland. Long-established rural communities including Clay Center, Martin, and Graytown are interspersed with smaller crossroads such as Blackberry Corner and Grodis Corner.

Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds across the township, including Oak Wood Cemetery, Williston Cemetery, and Clay Cemetery. Small-scale aviation is a notable modern characteristic of the area, as seen in the presence of Chippewa Field Airport, Bea-D Airport, and Toussaint Airpark. The map documents a classic Midwestern agricultural pattern of section lines and township roads, where old rail alignments and state routes like Oh-163 link these historically distinct settlements.
